Milan and Juventus end blips with home wins

AC Milan and Juventus reclaimed their winning form in home matches, while Fiorentina and Como endured setbacks. Milan triumphed 3-0 over Lecce at the San Siro, moving up to fifth place, two points behind leaders Roma, Inter, and Lazio. Juventus secured a 2-0 victory against Atalanta, with Francisco Conceicao and Gleison Bremer scoring the goals.

The results relieved pressure on Milan's head coach Ruben Amorim, who had endured a three-match winless run. Amorim praised his team's improved positional structure and playing freedom. In the draw against Napoli, Billy Gilmour equalized for Fiorentina after Napoli took the lead, keeping the home side in contention for European qualification.

Como suffered a 2-0 defeat to Frosinone, ending their four-match winning streak and marking their first loss of the season. The victory boosted Frosinone's position to sixth. Parma's 2-1 win over Genoa marked their first victory of the season, leaving Daniele De Rossi's side winless after five games.
